It’s a tough competition in the Republican party for who can be the most rootin’, tootin’, angriest, craziest mess around. It’s hard to get attention when you’ve got people like howler monkey Marjorie Taylor “Evil Pope” Greene and Lauren “Beetlejuice” Boebert. But don’t forget Nancy Mace, who is just as desperate to play perpetual victim who is also sooo tough!

To that end, Mace went into shouting, cussing apoplexy at an Ulta Beauty store on Saturday when one of her constituents had the audacity to ask her: “When are your next few town halls?”

She has not held a town hall since last June.

“I do them every year,” she said. “Do you want to keep going? Do you want to keep harassing me?” She said to the guy who asked her ONE question. But Mace very much wanted to keep going. “You could have gone to a dozen town halls last year. I’ve already done one, I’ll do plenty more. You’re always invited.”

“Okay, sweet,” said the guy.

And it could have ended there, but Mace was not done. Apparently assuming that the constituent she was talking to was gay, she added: “I voted for gay marriage.”

“What does that have to do with me?” he asked.

“So, I’m just saying, it has everything to do with you.”

“You think everything having to do with me has to do with gay marriage?”

“It has everything to do with you.”

“You think everything about me has to do with gay marriage.”

“I do, absolutely.”

“There’s no other humane conversation you can have with me?”

“If you want to get in my face about town halls, you should have shown up to one last year.”

It's hard to out-chud Marge, but she's on it.

What an embarrassing rant. That's one of the biggest overreactions to a simple question I've ever seen.
